Can you stick the logo whoever made at the top? that was cool.

velocity boy:2) The icon/avatars are not re-sized to 32x32 rather than cropped, so if the avatar you choose is slightly too large it now looks alright.

Aww I liked the randomness of how it was before :( making my avatar look like a turd :(

Any chance of bbcode?

Wow sounds dramatic ;) Good your mended!

What happened while skidding to do yourself that much damage?

That looks like it could be fun...

Yeah i'm pretty sure they will let you use tools as long as there is someone in the bookshop even if there is no one around running the bike bit specifically.

haha i watched this last night then went out and saw that guy skating across waterloo bridge... (at least it looked scarily like him)

There was a 'bike corner' at 56a Infoshop in Elephant and Castle... but it never really took off despite a few attempts. The inside space is pretty small but outside is decent. http://www.56a.org.uk/ (might be down atm though)

ahh too many buttons!

That does look quite cool.

My g/f wants to try track riding, or so she says - so maybe one week will end up there.

Grease always confuses me. I have a really old pot of

• is that pretty much the same as white lithium grease like this?
  
  

Yeah totally based on context. Would never say blanket action either way. Though i will always try and stop for pedestrians if its their right of way - but would happily jump infront/behind them if its safe to do so.

Not gunna make it today :( Hey at least that will give everyone else a chance :p

dexterflexter:Don't do it, they are meant to be bullhorns, just flipped over because shingo started it all, doesn't provide any beneficial purpose.

Looks nicer than bullhorns the 'right' way up tho ;)

Anyone got any cheap risers to recommend?

gav- lol i cant believe you sifted through fgg to find it again.

On the page he says - T19 X Nitto bullhorns - which fixedpip above says will be in the US in May.

damn thats really cheap! Might just get that + a pitlock - cant do any harm.

Right i know what u mean with the sealant!

True. 35£ - that was for the smallest one i could find (Kryptonite Evolution Mini) - the Sinus looks a bit big just for front wheel to frame, having to carry that around all the time.

i'd be after something relatively small and light - 1bhp what's your d lock and how small is it?

what's silicon sealant? how'd u get it out?

RPM:a bike should have a man's name written on it.

I'd like to see one with a woman's ;) :p

Buffalo Bill:
I think this is because the more cyclists there are, the more people expect to see them, so the more they look for them...

Definitely, this is what really matters for cyclists safety - not cycle lanes etc. but a culture which includes cycling as a serious mode of transport (among other things of course).

velocity boy:Ultimately it's not about the bikes, scenes, what's cool, it's about the people.

Yes, and there are wankers in any group of people, people who ride bikes and people who ride fixed wheel included. I've only been riding fixed just over 2 years now, but even i find some of the 'cool-culture' magazine's coverage annoying (and the ppl who come with it). But that can be the same with anything people identify around and to try and pretend otherwise is pretty silly, people should just get on with what they want to do.

huff ;)

The DoY usually shows the tour doesnt it?

Fixedwheelnut:crap cycle lanes

Pretty much all cycle lanes, no?

Ah i see - well i emailed them anyway and they havent got any in atm :(

If anyone comes across some anywhere - let me know!

damnham:I'm diggin the small d-locks, they fit perfect in your back pocket and aren't too heavy

But... if you want to lock to something they aren't that great.

laplusgourmande - thats a good idea, but I don't know if i would feel thats secure enough...

I see. Hmm i'm thinking of going the way of the pitlock atm.

Wheel nicked outside the business design centre, upper street. It was just a crappy sovos to ma3, butdget sprocket. I was surprised someone had been carrying a 15mm spanner to bother taking it off. Was annoying at the time but it spurred change ;)
